24 Best Steakhouses in San Diego

“Lovely staff and delicious food“

“The skirt steak will make you cry. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Great food and very nice atmosphere“

“Wonderful modern atmosphere. The service is phenomenal. The only downside was I was surprised I had to send my steak back to be cooked longer. For the price I generally expect it to be cooked as requested. It could have been that it was the beginning of the night so the wood chips were not hot enough and since I like my steak medium well it wasnt accounted for. When it came back the outer edges were medium well but the rest was still medium rare. It was still good, I just couldn't finish it because im weird wirh weird sensory issues. Outside of that the food was really good.

Their sides and desserts are divine.“

“Consistently wonderful service and food! The lamb was some of the best I've ever had - perfectly seasoned and cooked. Both appetizers we had, the crab and shrimp stuffed mushrooms and slow roasted meatballs, were fabulous with big flavor. Portions were nicely sized and we felt we got great value for our money. Beautiful restaurant with a modern twist on old-time dark wood steakhouse decor. Great, lively bar with great wine selection as well. The Caymus Wine Flight was delicious and great value. Highly recommend this restaurant!“

“This place was definitely a 10/10?✨“

“It had been a while, and now I don't know why. We had a party of 4 last night with reservations using OpenTable. It all went smoothly. The minute we pulled up to valet through to the time we got out car from valet, it was excellent and we all had a good time, great food, and excellent service from Jeremy and his team. Talked briefly with at least 2 managers. Both were checking up on how everything was. I like that!!! One came by the table, and the other was just inside the door as we were leaving. Ask Jeremy. He and his team were great!!!“

“One of the most unique experiences in San Diego.“

“Carvers Rancho Bernardo is about old values and quality! We, Realtors, give a very high rating, all around, especially to the friendly and professional Staff. Unfortunately, We can not say the same for Manager. It’s obvious, he needs to learn some culture and manners from the Staff Members. We just recently heard, he verbally hurt a number of loyal Carvers’ customers, including few of us, with his dishonest and rude behavior…for no reasons, at all. To make it worse: He walks away, and does not allow the smallest comment. Mr. Manager, while you were in the first grade, we, the old Patrons created the “Desired Image” of Carvers, by our frequent attendance and positive word of mouth among Newcomers!“

“Lilya ur bartender she’s amazing“

“Sean was PHENOMENAL. He was so kind and sweet. He went above and beyond to help my mom from out of state feel welcome. Anyone who has the privilege to have him as a server is in for a TREAT. He’s highly knowledgeable about the menu and made the fine dining experience exceptional.

It was so wonderful, my mom talked about having my rehearsal dinner here. We will definitely ask for him next time we attend for dinner.“

“I came here with my son for dinner. This location was on point. The server was kind and attentive. Host welcoming. They sat us right away. The place was clean. I ordered steak kebabs and shrimp pasta. I was skeptical about the pasta but it was really delicious. My son ordered ribeye medium rare. They cooked it to perfection. The Mac and cheese it came with was really good. My son said one the best he had in a steak house. Keep up the good work. We will be back.“

“Had lunch with my sister. Great food and portions. Kyle our waiter was friendly and attentive.“

“Service, food, ambiance are perfect for date night. Also, no issues with bringing a service animal“

“Food is always top notch here. Steaks, sides, and best apps with the shrimp cocktail which is massive.

But the highlight of the night was Candace, our server, who was kind, attentive and helped us pick great items to make our night. She makes it feel like family but with the best food you can order.

What an experience. Thank you Morton’s and thank you Candance for giving my family joy with our dinner. My daughter was so happy and comfortable because of the incredible service Candace provided and ate a ton of delicious food. It’s a night we all will remember.“

“I had to take a moment to write this because the service I experienced tonight truly stood out.

Riva was our server, and she was absolutely exceptional.

What really made the difference was her energy. She created an atmosphere that felt welcoming and taken care of, which is rare and so appreciated. It’s clear she takes pride in what she does, and it shows in every interaction.

Food was good, could be better!“

“Absolutely amazing food and drinks at great prices. Never disappointed.“

“Erica was the best server I’ve ever had (and the sea bass was fantastic)“

“Overall excellent steak dinner“

“Good food and fast service. Fair prices and expert help.“

“Been there twice now and both times didn't disappoint. This is a classic steakhouse designed for men (in my opinion). The servers are absolutely gorgeous but even better than that, they are attentive, friendly and just super cool. All of them. Definitely recommend for a boys night out or dinner with friends. Not so much for romantic dinners unless your woman is ok with scantily clad servers. Food both times was better than good. Not the best steaks I've ever had but they were delicious and cooked to perfection.“

“Overall, the food was good, but I was disappointed with the presentation. Since we chose to split a steak dinner, the restaurant served half of the steak on a very small plate. It made the portion look much smaller and did not create an appealing presentation. For a restaurant of this quality, I expected more attention to detail in how the dish was plated and served.“

“The service was great! In fact the owner Sarah was so friendly & graciously had a steak replaced when the first one wasn’t what one of our friends expected. Sarah was kind & professional. She was so pleasant & even brought a bottle of champagne to our table & personally served it at the end of the evening! Alex , our server did a great job as well! Thank you both for a wonderful evening & meal! ??“

“After traveling over 3K miles to San Diego, it was a huge disappointment at the North Harbor location. Ordered an expensive steak with sautéed mushrooms. The mushrooms weren't on the steak. Mentioned this to our server. She returns with a Cup of Mushrooms instead of taking the plate back to the kitchen to have the Mushrooms placed onto the steak. The other dish was served cold. Clam Chowder should've come first before the meal. The soup was Cold on top and Hot at the bottom. Needless to say that bit I ate, made me very ill. We purposely didn't eat that day just to have a memorable experience like the one I had back in the 90's at the LA Mesa location. Went to the restroom. The stalls were occupied except the Handicap one. The door latch didn't work. Couldn't close the door properly. There was No hand soap available. I usually carry a very small bottle of Dawn liquid soap in my purse just in case. That's how I washed my hands. . No water refills and, The place Ran Out of Coffee!!! Seriously? We were told that there was No More Coffee until the next morning!!! The Creamer was brought out in a Fast Food Wax Soda Cup. We were celebrating a Birthday. A slice of Chocolate Cake was dropped off at the table.. Nobody Sang Happy Birthday, Nothing!! A very Cold Ambiance, Unfriendly, felt Unwelcomed too. This is very Bad for Claim Jumper. The Staff is the first people the Customer sees and talks to. Staff Standing at the side of the Bar, Jilly Jacking while customers are trying to flag down the server, is Bad!! Too bad my uncle Anthony Ghio who was the owner of Anthony's Fish Grotto across the street from Claim Jumper, closed many years ago after Mrs. Ghio passed away. Anthony's is no longer on N. Harbor Dr. or we would've Dined there. Total bill was $145.00 Will Never Go Back!!!“
